Charedim. Modern Liberal Values. Contradiction? Not really.

by Shlomo Fingerer

I bring in whatever חכמה בגוים my Heiligeh rebbeim (among them b'chaim, Hagaon R' Elya Brudny, may he be zoiche to oirech Yamim b'ymima) recommend. The main point is that when someone points out a 'stira' between Kabbalah (the part of the Torah that speaks about science (מעשה בראשית) and modern science, if he knows how to unify quantum theory with resistivity theory, and understand Kabbalah על עומקו, that's not a contradiction! That means that he can win a noble prize for scientific discovery! Science doesn't have the headstart that Kabbalah has but every thousand years it catches up a bit.

Episodes

  1. The Rif; Riffing with Yisroel Ahron

    Yisroel Aaron Allen and Shlomo Fingerer go on a tangent trail!

  2. Women. Minyan. Rabbi, are Charedim sexist?

    No. I’ll explain.

  3. Science catches up to Rashi!

    Science is the miraculous epic of understanding Hashem through his creations. We got a few millennia of a head start when Hashem took us out on a Shir Hashirim styled date at Har Sinai and told us all about Himself!

  4. Accepting The Torah

    What does it mean to you? What is your neshama going to take out of Parshas Yisro?

  5. Charedi Ethics in the 21st century: Modernity In Talmud Bavli!

    Text me your take @ 347-512-4599

  6. What is Modern-Orthodoxy? The first: A framework for embracing cognitive dissonance. Part 1

    Mishna Sanhedrin 11:1 & Avos 2:13

  7. Charedi Response To The Chaim Walder Saga, Explained By A Proud Charedi And Modern Orthodox Rabbi

    TLDR: help us be the best Charedim that we can be. Find your closest black hat-pants-shoes and white shirt, yeshiva fellow. Ask how you can help start a Vaad Hatznius to combat voyeurism and me2-type situations. Ask how you can help start a Va’ad L’Tohar HaChinuch, to root out ‘pritzus’ attacking...

  8. Who are you at your core?

    As a Talmudist (before printing, and needed to be remembered sometimes by heart period so it was imperative to jump from interesting thing to something interesting even if it was a different subject period just for memory purposes.) I jump from subject to subject so you get my thoughts for pretty...

  9. Rebbetzin Torah!

    Rabbi Shlomo was so sheltered in his decade in yeshiva. He only knows what college is because Trump bragged about it. Melody is a NYU graduate in both physics and computer science. She married him and convinced to bringing him up to date with some developments that he missed in the 2 decades. She...

  10. Make Tefilah Your's!

    Connecting your modern soul to cherished millennia old verbiage.

  11. My challenge to you: find meaning in the most meaningless drudgery that your life has.

    The ladder to happiness, P.E.R.M.A., has M. for meaning. I'm NYC, we identify with our jobs. Don't let it feel like useless drudgery. You are contributing to the quality of life improvements of the poorest of the poor.

  12. How to have more positive emotions than negative emotions, tilting the scale towards happiness.

    Seligman's P.E.R.M.A. model argue that feeling that you are living a life well lived/ happiness, is the result of building these 5 rungs. P. Is for positive emotions.

  13. The Talmudic Imperative To Act With Self Confidence, ESPECIALLY When You Feel Unworthy.

    https://www.sefaria.org/Sotah.22a.13?with=all&lang=bi https://www.sefaria.org/Avodah_Zarah.19b.4?with=all&lang=bi https://www.sefaria.org/Exodus.4.10?with=all&lang=bi&aliyot=0 https://www.sefaria.org/Jonah.1?lang=bi

  14. תחת אשר לא עבדת את ה' אלוקיך בשמחה ובטוב לבב מרוב כל!

    The first of the 5 components of the PERMA model for happiness is P, for Positive emotions. To achieve that, wonder if everyone is pausing you behind your back, right now! Can you be sure they aren't?

  15. Praying, when you believe that none of listening.

    What is the point?

  16. Dear Rabbi Shlomo Judaism is home for many of us. It's it culture. It's our heritage. As an atheist?

    Yes. An atheist can FULLY participate in every part of our tradition, prayers included. The story about hypocrisy is just that, a worry. Focus on finding meaning in the commandments one at a time b you CAN become one of the many greats who have become Orthodox lay leaders even as they were…

  17. A Haredi Atheist?!

    If you lost your faith, you need not lose your religion.

  18. Davening for the rebuilding of Yerushalayim!

    Feeling the loss while in Mir Yerushalayim's beautiful building

  19. Feel cringeworthy? That is proof that others believe that you did well. Summary.

    The previous episode goes into Talmudic style rigourous logic to justify my claim: this is the 2 minutes summary. A) You care enough that you actually feel bad. B) In a field where there aren't clear standards, no standardized scores or lap times, "good" means what most people are like, including...

  20. Rabbi Shlomo, I'm afraid of public speaking. I once made such a faux-pa that I cringe constantly.

    Listen carefully, dear freind: Feeling cringeworthy about your performance, in any subjective domain, is proof that you are good at that. I will spend as long as you need, to help you understand this radically innovative idea.

  21. You can be a full Convert/Giyores/Ger while not being a Zionist in the colloquial sense of the word.

    Don't confuse emotions for logic. Your critics have real cultural trauma. Give them a hug. The theology will come, but not when emotions are high. Emotions and logic are not the same language!

  22. On The Final, 15% is: Were You Eagerly Anticipating Moshiach. Let's commit to acing this one:-)

    1) מסכת שבת דף לא עמוד א 2) מכות דף כג: 3) קידושין דף ל: 4) משלי פרק כב פסוק ו'.

  23. Big-Bang? Evolution? EMUNA 'PESHUTA' ROCKS!! Science is nothing more than Kabbalah.

    Not knowing what to make of it is a badge of pride!!! It should remind you that you are a true yarei Shomayim (that's why you haven't yet learned the Kabbalah that address how Hashem made the world) and a true Ben Toirah (that's why you don't know the Applied Theoretical Physics (Cosmology) of…

  24. Emuna Peshuta is a badge of honor.

    When you hear my colleagues, scientists in the ivy league world, her fancy word, like big bang and evolution. Pick your shoulders up with pride!!!! You have the real thing. They are going their best, but we've got the direct transmission!!!

  25. Kabbalah & Torah teasers for future clips

  26. Hashem is all around you. Science is His will. Nature is the expression of His Unvarying Kedusha.

    Living the Torah-life is living in sync with the universe, at one with nature.

  27.

  28. The Laws of Science are the devar Hashem. That's why they are so constant. Hashem does not change.

    Don't be intimidated by your great uncle who is a doctor. Science is explaining the Toirah. Not the other way around😂

  29. Should you be afraid of your knowledge that scientists say that there was a big bang?

    No. It actually is mechazek Emuna. There was a beginning-> someOne started it. The bang was an infinetly strong flash of light, teaching us what Vayomer Hashem Yehi Ohr Va'yehi Ohr, what it means, and why that started Ma'asei Breshis.

  30. Second half https://www.sefaria.org/Hosea.6.3?with=Talmud&lang=bi

    Getting close to Hashem

  31. Encountering science as one who spent 10 years in full imersion yeshiva.

    How I turned it into a tool to bring me closer to our Holy Dad.

  32. Rabbi, I'm a yeshiva boy struggling with my belief. What can I do?

    Emuna, Torah AND Science, staying observant as an atheist and more. From a Talmudic perspective.

  33. Mitzvot are more of an opportunity than a challenge.

    It is not an empty system of rules, it is the meaning of your life! https://www.sefaria.org/Deuteronomy.32.47?with=all&lang=bi&aliyot=0 This verse is a challenge to each and every one of us, to find meaning in each mitzva (to the point where one would keep doing it even if they didn't have to!!!)...

  34. A Charedi who is a Modern Orthodox rabbi shares his insights on the two;what can we each learn from?

    R'Shlomo touches on a whole range of original and thought provoking topics. Each of these topics will get their own episode, in due time.
